Default Which Vancouver store has best prices?

In regards to reef tank equipment, which store has the best prices? I'm wondering if I should go to King Ed, cuz I bought all my stuff from them before. But most ppl recommend J&L here.

If we had an LFS as cheap as J&L here in Alberta, we'd be golden.

J&L = both a MO and a LFS, but the LFS has MO prices. Not too shabby.

Both J&L and King Ed's have very decent prices, but J&L's products are of much higher quality IMO.

the only thing King ed's seems to beat J&L's prices is in the tanks.

King Ed's tanks are cheap...

Anyone know if the J&L prices posted on their website are their real store prices? Or are they MSRP?

Just pay them a visit and find out already!! (Honestly, do you really even need an excuse to visit a fish store?? ) I doubt you'll regret the drive.

The prices on the website are the same as the prices in the store.

Go already!!

Plus J&L carries some smaller items that are not on the web.
